The Pioneer Sr System: Operating Other Pioneer Components - Pioneer Elite VSX-53TX Operating Instructions Manual

Using Other Functions
Memo:
• Remote operation may not be possible if direct light from a strong fluorescent lamp is shining on the IR receiver
remote sensor window.
• The tuner cannot be tuned to more than one station at a time. Therefore, changing the station in one room also
changes the station in the other room. Please be careful not to change stations when recording a radio
broadcast.
• The volume levels of the main and sub rooms are independent.
• When more than one remote control signal is transmitted at the same time, the receiver does not operate.
• When operating MULTI ROOM & SOURCE with the MULTI ROOM & SOURCE OUT jacks connected to a sub
room amplifier which bears the PIONEER component with an CONTROL terminals and has a remote sensor,
both the IR receiver and the amplifier may receive remote control commands (making correct operation
impossible). In this case, place the IR receiver and amplifier apart from each other, and point the remote control
directly at the IR receiver during operation.
• If you plan to leave the MULTI ROOM feature off for a lengthy period please turn off the power in both the sub
and main rooms. Make sure the STANDBY indicator turns red and the MULTI ROOM indicator goes off.
• If you send the SYSTEM OFF command from the sub room by remote control, the power of both rooms will go
off. Please be careful when making a recording in the main room.
The PIONEER SR System: Operating other PIONEER
components
Connecting an optional control cord allows you to operate other PIONEER components simply by pointing the
receiver's remote control at the remote sensor on the front panel of the receiver. The receiver then sends the remote
control signals to the other devices via the CONTROL OUT terminal.
Memo:
• You can also control PIONEER components (and those made by other manufacturers) by pointing the receiver's
remote control directly at the respective component. This type of operation does not require control cords. All
you have to do is recall the appropriate stored settings (see page 62).
• If you use a remote control hooked up via the CONTROL IN jack with a control cord, you won't be able to use this
unit's remote control.
• If you use this feature make sure an analog (audio and/or video) connection has been made between the units.
